Whispering is extremely rude in my own opinion.How bout you, does it bother you?

At certain times I think whispering is rude, an incident with me is when we are at work we have a break area, we all sit at tables designed for about 5-6 peoples. This particular time it was just 3 of us sitting at the table. Two other females and me. One of these female started leaning over and whispering in the other one ear. I ignored it the first time then she did it again and they had a conversation whispering, I got up to leave and they told me I didn't have to leave. I told them it seems as though the two of you have something to talk about. I left. From that time on I would not sit at the table with the two of them then they said I act like I don't want to be around them. Which I didn't. They whispered like that all the time.

Whispering do disturb me in some way or other, but there are times whereby they might be be saying something bad about us, instead, it's something else where they knows about it only, just that, they happen to be talking about it and i was there at the wrong time ^_^ Be confident in ourselves and diversify in our thinking so that we won't be bothered about trival things, be board minded ^_^

whispering can be rude to some extent, but in some situations in can be fine.. it is rude to whisper about someone who is just near or next you, and then after whispering about him, the person suddenly look at the person.. it also wrong to whisper to somebody, while somebody is talking to you, or just talking.. like in school or party perphaps.. when you whisper in you friend to tell something like your secret or etc.. its fine..

It really depends on the situation. If you are in like a conference and need to slip out, commincate with your neighbor, or just comment to your neighbor about what is going on - whispering is fine. If you are in a small group and you turn and whisper something - that can be rude. Now, if you are in a small group at a friend's house and you leave - say to go to the bathroom and come back, and whisper something to the host - it might be to inform them that, perhaps the bathroom is out of paper or there is some more urgent problem that might be mutually (or even inclusively) embarrassing to say aloud. I think there is a time and place for whispering, not all is meant to be rude, and is, in fact, ruder to be distracting - as in the conference situation.

i am ok if people whispers before me and even i too on circumstances where we need to do like that rather speaking loud, but i never accepts people to speak on my bakc and whispers a lot. and i never go back to encourage in their acitivities as well and i too dont do it on back

I think if you are out in a group of friends, as people are whispering, it is extremely rude & I really dislike it in that circumstance.

Not really. Unless it is in a congregation of 3 people and one of them is me. Otherwise I would think that it would be able to for people to whisper if it's a conversation that needs to be done privately. However if it does disturb the other people aroudn i would request the whisperers to excuse themselves and fisnish their discussion.

no, i don't sweat rude people. they go way back on the burner to me. if they are whipering about me they sure do have a dull subject. lol

Not at all times, there are circumstances wherein we don't have to speak loudly to speak like in a social gathering for instance whereby social manners are expected you have to at least whisper a word to the person next to you,lol. I know what you meant by that buddy, yes, I think it is rude specially when you are talking to someone in front, expect a blush , the person would tell you are gossiping him or her. It is still better to maintain manners or ettiquite with low pitched voice but not the point of ear-mouth talk. Whats the point of whispering though if you can type it in your cell, hehehe. Happy mylotting !
